A Lyon County man pled not guilty to allegedly driving drunk in Pella earlier this month.

Jacob Steven Marco, 34, is charged with operating while intoxicated-3rd offense, a Class D felony, and driving while barred. According to court documents, police received information of a man driving a possibly stolen car. Officers pulled over the vehicle, and during the stop, police say Marco had difficulty following orders and admitted to drinking. He has prior OWI convictions in 2005 and 2009, and was also arrested in Osceola County last month for the same charge. A pretrial conference is scheduled for September 18th.
